Commit Message

Pedro Alves Dec. 12, 2022, 8:30 p.m. UTC
  This commit extends the logic added by these two commits from a while
ago:

 #1  7b961964f866  (gdbserver: hide fork child threads from GDB),
 #2  df5ad102009c  (gdb, gdbserver: detach fork child when detaching from fork parent)

... to handle thread clone events, which are very similar to (v)fork
events.

For #1, we want to hide clone children as well, so just update the
comments.

For #2, unlike (v)fork children, pending clone children aren't full
processes, they're just threads, so don't detach them in
handle_detach.  linux-low.cc will take care of detaching them along
with all other threads of the process, there's nothing special that
needs to be done.

Should the comment not say what happens to KIND?  I think this comment
applies throughout this patch where KIND was added as an argument.

Otherwise, this looks good.
